The table above illustrates that the legislation administrated by the eight Agencies
contains a large amount of information obligations. Furthermore, the table shows
that the quantity of information obligations that the respective Agencies are responsible
for varies significantly, from a total of 9 for the Danish Competition Authority,
to a total of 628 for the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority.
The development of the administrative costs shows an increase of app. 60
million d.kr./ year
The evaluation of the administrative costs consists of a baseline measurement
(costs associated with legislation effective the 15 th of September 2004) and a reference
point measurement (costs associated with legislation effective and/or
adopted by the Danish Parliament before the 27 th of November 2001).
The difference between the baseline and reference point measurement represents
the net effect of the legislative initiatives taken by the current government since it
came to office in November 2001.
